Abstract
Digital culture and language encompass the means, mode, and style in which modern-day technologies impact upon cultural practices, languages and communication. The crossroads of these fields have transmuted how people act together towards others or with others, create, and use pieces of information in common. This study aims to analyse the benefits of digital language and culture. The problem that warrants this study is to ascertain the role of digitalisation in strengthening the local/weak languages and cultures amid the dominant ones. The methodology this study employs is analysis. Significantly, this study is important because every person lives within a linguistic and cultural environment, and technological improvement in these areas is tantamount to improving the human condition. Research findings reveal that the dominant languages of the imperial masters, English, French, Portuguese, and Spanish, still subdue the local languages and make them insignificant and unrecognizable on the global stage. Finally, this study submits that the efforts to digitalise as many cultures and languages as possible are notable great feats in the right direction, which
help revive and strengthen many local cultures and languages already at the extinction threshold. Digitalising local languages and cultures is an excellent way of putting them on the global platform, facilitating easy access to their knowledge, learning, and appreciation by an unprecedented number of interested individuals and groups of people, furnishing everybody with communication opportunities, irrespective of cultural, geographical, or linguistic boundaries.
